Man you’re presumptuous. What ACTUALLY happened was that they tried teaching the corgi how to manufacture torpedoes, figuring that his physical resemblance to torpedoes would grant the dog natural talent at doing so. The corgi was furious at this racist assumption, and vengefully framed the two for public nudity. Then a ship secretly exploded and sank or something, I guess probably because the corgi became emboldened by his act of vengeance and used mind-powers on the ship’s engineers. So now you know.
